Of those two I'd get the Glen del.I have both,and when the block is done,it's done.At least you can get an insert for the Glen del and it resembles a deer.

Personally I like the McKenzie targets the best because they actually look like and are sized similar to an actual animal.The Glen del is one rediculous looking deer to me.And I've lost a bunch of arrows to that stupid bar.

the block is the way to go.    I have bought 2 over the last 10yrs. I shoot alot an I shoot broadheads each year about 3-5 days before the season.

Rinehart's are definately the best target available.(IMHO).But expensive!

I'm going to build a sand pit/box target for BH shooting this year. Any of the layered targets just don't hold up to big Snuffers. I've never shot them into the block with the rubbery outside membrane though. I really don't want to pay that much for a target though.

I have the smaller of the two glendel bucks and I like it alot. The only downside is that if you hit the bar that holds the core in place it can stave up your arrows.

I've had 2 Glendel full rut's. I bought 2 before I tried the Rinehart broadhead buck.

The Glendel is an OK target, but I'll never buy another one after the Rinehart.

And, the Rinehart broadhead buck is cheaper!

The Glendel has a metal bar that was mentioned in an earlier post. Hit it and your arrow goes poof.

The Glendel insert is good for field points and takes a lot of punishment, with field points. But if you start shooting broadheads, it starts falling apart faster than you'd expect for that money. And if you shoot 3 blades, it really goes pretty quick.

You can get the Rinehart broadhead buck for roughly $185 online. This target takes a beating with field points and broadheads. To date, it's the best deer target I've owned or seen.

Don't like my glendel inserts are good, rest of target does'nt hold up well, go w/ rhinehart or a block will last much longer
